I recognize how overwhelming the process towards healing can be whether for yourself or a loved one. Together, I can help you through the process, as we work on fostering self-esteem, a greater sense of self, and the healthy coping skills needed to navigate life’s challenges. I believe that counseling is a collaborative process where we work on healing and allowing the whole self to thrive in whatever way is best tailored towards your individual needs.

Welcome to Peony Counseling! I chose the beautiful, lush peony as a symbol for growing a "fuller and richer life" through psychotherapy. At Peony Counseling, we work together to move you towards wholeness as an individual and in your relationships. Life is difficult and we frequently get stuck with grief, trauma, transitions, resentment or anxiety that can feel overwhelming and lonely. It is my belief that we all can use some help at these times in our lives that don't make sense or feel really dark. "The wound is where the Light enters you." Rumi

You might care for others but leave your needs behind. You are a complex, giving, normal person who in one way or another has taken hits in life. Perhaps traumatic experiences can cast a shadow over your life. I tend to work with those who are objectively quality, imperfect people but feel shame, abnormal guilt or other signals of denigrated self-worth, consciously or unconsciously. In addition to individual therapy and psychoanalysis, I offer therapy groups for anxiety, depression, isolation, and improving authentic, healthy communication.

I believe we were made to be known, to connect and to be free. Each of us has a unique story we are living out and along the way experience circumstances and degrees of difficulty that leave us feeling burnt out, alone and/or confused. I enjoy working with individuals, families and couples from all walks of life that are open to learning and growing together with me. I am passionate about creating a safe place for you to tell your story and explore what's getting in the way of you living life to the fullest.

You deserve respect for your resilience, and I would be honored to support your growth. My passion is facilitating healing and hope from painful experiences including abuse/assault, unhealthy relationships, infertility/pregnancy loss and other hardships. After surviving these experiences you may feel stuck in pain, grief, guilt, anger, fear, and shame. Anxiety, depression, and PTSD can develop when you are overwhelmed, feel isolated by your experiences and have limited support. In a safe and accepting space your story can be heard, your worth honored, and your strength rebuilt so you can move forward in a fulfilling way.

Having worked with diverse families and children, I value assessing authentic needs and looking deeper to discover a person’s potential for growth. I welcome individuals, children, couples, and families facing a variety of challenges including stress, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship issues, parenting, and anxiety. Together, I believe that we can face these challenges and discover solutions to improve all qualities of life.

I specialize in the treatment of trauma related and dissociative disorders. I have been in private practice since 2002. I completed my student and LPC internships with Timberlawn Psychiatric Hospital's Trauma Program, directed by Colin Ross, M.D. from November 1996 through February 1998. My intern work at the trauma program led me to a long-time association with Dr. Ross and a specialization in the treatment of trauma-related disorders including Dissociative Identity Disorder. I was the program director for the inpatient Trauma Treatment Program from 1998-2002.

Are you struggling to adjust to a new transition? Are you feeling overwhelmed by expectations of yourself and others? Life can present us with new challenges that can often feel overwhelming and isolating. With acceptance and understanding, you can develop tools and strategies to manage the effects of anxiety, depression, grief, and uncertainty. My passion is in supporting clients who are struggling with rigid expectations of themselves/others, healing from traumatic experiences, and in transition.

Helping clients find their authentic self is my passion. Life can be hard! Trauma, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, depression and more can cause people to lose themself. Finding ways to cope with and free themselves from negative thoughts, fears, pain and trauma through useful tools, self-talk, and changing thought patterns is vital for my clients. As we walk through the pains, struggles and frustrations of life, my clients are able to see themselves for who they are and who they want to be. Freedom, peace, self-confidence and joy are found.

I help men and women dealing with, "Now what?" You know, when life doesn't go according to plan, which it rarely does. It often sounds something like this: Now what should I do that I feel anxious or depressed? ...that I can't seem to lose this weight? ...that my situation feels hopeless? ...that my past continues to haunt me? ...that I don't feel good about myself? ...that I (or someone I love) drink(s) too much? ...that I struggle with food? ...that my relationship isn't what I hoped for? Now what should I do that I'm questioning how I've spent my life? In other words, "This isn't how it was supposed to be; this wasn't the plan."

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
